Dying immortals would turn into qi and feed back the Plane they were born with. For example, a Worldly Immortal that ascended from Earth to the First Heavenly Layer. After death, the transformed spiritual energy would return to Earth through the Plane Passage. This was controlled by the laws of the universe and no one could change it.

In this universe, there were countless star Plane, and Earth was just one of them, and a very weak one at that. The only similarity between these planets was that everyone who had reached the Spirit Transformation level would be able to raise their Celestial Realm.

Several thousand years ago, after the Jiang Taigong became a god, many people ascended to become immortals, and all the spirit energy on Earth was used up. Most of the deities had ascended to the first level and become Worldly Immortals. Only a small number of them had ascended to the second level.

If Earth wanted to recover its original spiritual energy, they could only wait for the death of these Worldly Immortals, and the spiritual energy that they turned into would feed back to Earth. Thus, after the Western Week, very few people were able to ascend.

The probability of a Worldly Immortal dying was too small. Not everyone in the first layer was a Worldly Immortal. There were still many aboriginals that had to start cultivating from the Qi Refining stage.

That was because Worldly Immortals were also going to get married and have children and pass on their generations. The children that were born would also have mortals that couldn't cultivate. Although the chances were very low, there were still some that could. Even if he could cultivate it, he would have to start from the beginning.

Therefore, for Worldly Immortals that ascended from Earth, the probability of death was negligible. Even if one or two of them died, they would be able to replenish the Earth's spiritual energy.

A few hundred years ago, something big happened on Earth. A group of cultivator went straight to Kunlun and opened an independent space in the Kunlun Secret Realm, called Cultivation Secret Realm.

This secret realm was extremely close to the spatial passageway and could capture a large portion of the spirit energy that was being transferred back to Earth from the Celestial Realm. Therefore, Earth had basically no spiritual energy to feed back for the past thousand years. It was also because of this that the spiritual energy of the Earth's Plane was so sparse.

Speaking to here, Jiang Chu roughly understood the reason behind the Earth's sparse spiritual energy, but, he was very curious about the authenticity of the secret, so he asked: Senior, is this matter a legend? Or was it real?

Spiritual Master Yu Yang laughed and said, ”If everyone knew, it wouldn't be called a secret.” This matter is absolutely true, my ancestor was an expert of the early period of Golden Pill Stage, and lived until the end of the Republic of China. He had seen one of the protectors of Earth's Plane before, so he got the news from the protector.

Jiang Chu said in shock: Plane Guardian? That should be very powerful? Why did he allow others to establish their own Cultivation Secret Realm?

The Plane's guardian was also only at the late stage of the Divine Yuan Realm and had not reached the level of a Martial God yet. He could be considered a peerless genius in the past few hundred years. In that group of people who created Cultivation Secret Realm, there were two people who both had the cultivation of late period of Nascent Soul Stage and more than ten experts of late period of Golden Pill Stage.

Oh, I thought the Guardian was the strongest person on Earth, I didn't expect there to be someone stronger than him.

Junior brother, the protector must be a person of high moral standing and be acknowledged by the laws of the world in order to become a protector. Else, no matter how high his cultivation was, he would not be able to do it. This was because the Guardian Token was automatically chosen to be a Guardian. As long as one became a guardian, one would have two treasures. One was the Guardian Token, holding it could instantly teleport to any corner of the Earth Plane. The other was an offensive magical equipment. As for what it was, the legend was that it was based on the guardian's specific circumstances, not a fixed one. As long as one became the guardian of the Plane, the two artifacts would directly enter the guardian's Consciousness Sea.

So that's the case, then is there still a Plane protector on Earth? How many guardians are there?

Of course there are. As for how many there are, I'm not sure either. You should know about the person the ancestor met back then.

I know? Could he be a legendary figure in history?

Spiritual Master Yu Yang laughed and said: Of course, he is the founder of the Wudang Sect, the one known as the Martial Saint, Zhang Sanfeng, Spiritual Master Zhang.
